Who’s a better mom, you or Michelle Obama?

She shops at target, helps with homework, and worries that she might mess up her children. First Lady Michelle Obama continues to prove to the American people that even though she lives in the White House with an army of servants at hand, she’s just like all moms. And perhaps she’s even better than a lot of us.

Yes, the First Lady does seem to be raising the bar for what a mother can be. She could easily ask a White House staff member to tidy up her daughters’ rooms, but at a recent roundtable with a group of parenting bloggers Mrs. Obama revealed that she requires Sasha and Malia to make their beds every morning because she wants her children to learn responsibility. And she even tells her husband, the President of the United States, to put away his Blackberry at the family dinner table. Could moms across America ask for a better role model?

How does your parenting stack up against the First Lady’s? Answering the following 10 questions. Give yourself one point for every “yes.”

1. Do you forbid your children from watching television during the week?

2. Do you fill your kids’ weekends with activities and sports so they don’t have time to watch television?

Yes

No

“I try to fill up their weekends with a lot of stuff,” Mrs. Obama says (Yahoo! Shine). “It’s like, sports and games and… oh, it’s bedtime. So sorry you didn’t get your TV time in!”

3. Do you throw out your children’s Halloween candy after two days?

Yes

No

“I confiscate it, because it’s like, you just don’t need to have this in your room,” the First Lady shares (iVillage). “It’s not good. The temptation is too great.”

4. Do you require your children to make their own beds?

Yes

No

“They’re not little princesses,” she says (BabyCenter). “We have butlers and maids and things like that, and it’s like, you don’t touch the girls’ rooms because they have to make their beds, they have to clean up their rooms … They have chores to do.”

5. Do your kids do their own laundry?

Yes

No

“Sasha has started doing the laundry, Malia was supposed to be doing it but (Sasha) is really into laundry. My mom still does her own laundry,” Mrs. Obama shares (iVillage).

“So if a bag of chips were there, I’d eat the whole thing, so I just can’t have it around,” Mrs. Obama says (Yahoo! Shine). And I think the same thing is true for the kids. It’s just tough temptation. So we try to put out healthy snacks in clear containers.”

7. Do you try to stay off digital devices—i.e., your iPhone—when you’re around your children?

Yes

No

Michelle sends most of her emails at 5 a.m. before the girls get up and isn’t on the computer much the rest of the day. At the dinner table when Barack pulls out his Blackberry, the girls say, “Put that down!” she says (iVillage).

8. Do you only give your kids their allowance after they’ve completed all their chores?

Yes

No

“They have chores to do, and they don’t get their allowance until they can prove that they’ve done their chores for the week,” the first lady explains (Yahoo! Shine).

9. Do you eat right and exercise regularly in order to set a good example for your kids?

Yes

No

“I want my girls to see the model of a mother taking care of herself, because, quite frankly, my mother didn’t do that. My mother was the traditional stay-at-home mom who never went to the hairdresser… and the thought of spending a dime on herself was just like, ‘Oh my goodness, why would I want to do that?'” the First Lady says (iVillage).

Bonus question: 10. Do you have a balanced, healthy view on trashy reality television, allowing your children to watch shows such as “Keeping up with the Kardashians” and then discussing what happened to teach important life lessons?

Yes

No

“Barack really thinks some of the Kardashians … when they watch that stuff he doesn’t like that as much,” the First Lady said (The Stir). “But I sort of feel like if we’re talking about it — and I’m more concerned with how they take it in — what did you learn when you watched that? And if they’re learning the right lessons, like, that was crazy, then I’m like, okay. So, it requires a lot — it is the reality of where they are.”
